Biography

Jamie Wong works at the interface of political economic anthropology and science technology studies, focusing on China studies. Her research broadly investigates the relationship between computational technologies and governance in China, set against the backdrop of emerging global systems in technology finance. Through ethnographic fieldwork among venture capital investors, startup founders, and government partners in China, she examines the practices and nested logics of 'scale' that shape subjectivities and configurations within Chinese state society. She is currently completing a book provisionally titled 'Weight Scale: Venture Capitalism, Big Data, Governance in Contemporary China', which studies the implications of China's internet culture on the digital economy and civil discourse.
